    Does anyone know his hourly rate? The Merc guy that I spoke to wanted near $500 to clean three carbs and swap out a water pump impeller.

    Thanks for the info. I called him and he pretty much said there was no real need to bring it in unless there was actually something acting up as long as I had done the lower unit oil change. It was a good conversation. He said I could bring it in, but it probably wasn't necessary. By being honest up front that sure makes me ready to use him when it is necessary.
